Violets and berries dominate the nose and palate of this mature vine cuvée. More info
This Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Poisets come from vines planted in 1947. The 3,400 square-metre parcel, located next to the “Les Cailles” premier cru, was bought up by the domain in 2010. Organic agriculture is practised, and the harvests are carried out by hand with a limited yield of strictly sorted grapes.
There is little intervention involved when the grapes vinify. During fermentation, a third of the grapes are kept in whole bunches and only wild yeasts are used in the process. In the glass, this cuvée has a deep red colour, offering aromas of violet and wild berries. This is an elegant wine with a silky profile and velvety tannins.
Nuits Saint-Georges Les Poisets Hubert Lignier (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Foie de veau charolais, Gigot d’agneau, Rognons de veau aux champignons.

The excellent reputation of Domaine Hubert Lignier goes back a long way, due to the finesse and concentration of their wines. In 1991 Hubert's son Romain joined the domain. He sadly died in 2004, and two years later Romain's brother, Laurent, joined his father. The domain, practicing sustainable agriculture, counts eight hectares of vineyard close to Morey, Gevrey and Chambolle.
All the work is carried out with quality in mind (manual harvests, low yields, strict sorting); according to Laurent, “75% of a wine's quality comes from the quality of the vineyard”. Most of the grapes grown are Pinot noir, with a small amount of Gamay and Aligoté.
The juice is vinified with little intervention, with wild-yeast fermentation and long maturations of 21-22 months on lees. The wines are not fined or filtered. What we find in the glass is a suppleness with tannins of a velvety character.
